Driving test public health information for driving instructors

ADIs and AMIs, like all businesses, should follow the latest published guidance to help stop the spread of COVID-19 in what is still a very challenging time.

Information is also available at:

• Coronavirus-COVID-19 information and advice

Practical driving tests

To help driving examiners try to keep a safe distance the DVA has changed its examiners’ programmes.

DVA may also have different working patterns so it can allow time between tests to help avoid too many people gathering (crowding) in the car park.

Test times may be different to what you are used to, you should check carefully.

Don’t arrive at the test centre more than five minutes early.

For more information on steps DVA has taken to help reduce the risk of spreading Coronavirus (COVID-19) during driving tests see the link below:
